What is Stem Cell Research : Issues and Bibliography about?

<p>embryonic Stem Cells Have The Ability To Develop Into Virtually Any Cell In The Body, And May Have The Potential To Treat Medical Conditions Such As Diabetes And Parkinson's Disease. In August 2001, President Bush Announced That For The First Time Federal Funds Would Be Used To Support Research On Human Embryonic Stem Cells, But Funding Would Be Limited To Existing Stem Cell Lines. The National Institutes Of Health (nih) Has Established The Human Embryonic Stem Cell Registry Which Lists Stem Cell Lines That Are Eligible For Use In Federally Funded Research. Although 78 Cell Lines Are Listed, 21 Embryonic Stem Cell Lines Are Currently Available. Scientists Are Concerned About The Quality, Longevity, And Availability Of The Eligible Stem Cell Lines. For A Variety Of Reasons, Many Believe Research Advancement Requires New Embryonic Stem Cell Lines, And For Certain Applications, Stem Cells Derived From Cloned Embryos May Offer The Best Hope For Progress In Understanding And Treating Disease. A Significant Cohort Of Pro-life Advocates Support Stem Cell Research; Those Opposed Are Concerned That The Isolation Of Stem Cells Requires The Destruction Of Embryos. Letters From Congress, On
